Missed my BBBC Results Part 1?
Taking Before and After pictures is scary enough without having to post them on the internet for all to see!
I hope you guys appreciate this because I was NOT going to do it!!! :D
It takes a lot of guts to see pictures of oneself on the internet…LOL.
So did it WORK? Click continue reading below.
65 Days of the BBBC Challenge did this for me…
[Please ignore the fake tan in the first pic- I was prepping for my photoshoot at that time! lol]
What I noticed:
- Smaller and more toned stomach area: Proof that CORE WORK rocks!
- Toned arms and shoulders (Even though I didn’t see a decrease in arm circumference, I know the arms are much more toned- and that is what matters!)
Let’s ZOOM IN shall we?
And the behind pictures…
What I noticed:
- Toning of the back: In the before picture you can see a bit of extra skin in the crease area, but in the after picture it is gone.
- Back of my legs and butt area have firmed up
- Bikini top also seems to fit better (the strap doesn’t dig in as much).
I am REALLY happy with these results– especially in my stomach area. Core work is the BEST!
I am so glad I took these pictures because I honestly had no idea that my body had changed so much. I am still quite amazed that just a couple strength exercises each day can make such a difference.
I also think that adding the Shred over the last couple of weeks has helped too! I am going to continue to do the 30-Day Shred because I really enjoy it! I will probably try to squeeze it in twice a week or so.
Also- BBBC participants: Don’t forget to send me your final results! :) [email protected]

Look what the awesome ladies of Hip-T sent me!
Â
A beautiful Black Lace Hip-T!
Â
I just love it!
Many of my shirts are too short (I have a long waist) and I find the My Hip T provides just the right amount of length.
It is SUPER slimming in the waist area too! I find it kind of sucks everything in.

Ok off to write my exam! Hopefully cramming works- I sure did it enough in university! lol.
Tonight I will be answering your most burning question:
Will I be doing a summer installment of the BBBC?
You look even more amazing Angela! Totally inspiring. xx
This is awesome. Your abs are ROCKIN!! That is amazing. Now I wish I would’ve done the BBBC :(. I’ve been following your progress but didn’t do it. If you do a summer installment, I think I will!! :)
I have the same problem with shirts…I am tall and a lot of shirts aren’t long enough; at least, not as long as I’d like them! The Hip-T is super cute!!
Congrats on the results – you’re hard work really shows!
I’d love to win a hip-t….I think I’d get the most use out of a white one. Thanks for sponsoring this (and for being awesome, as usual)!
you look FANTASTIC! Sign me up for a summer installment! – if you do it ;)
yowza!! your abs look amazing! i should’ve done the BBBC :(
You look awesome!! Thanks for informing me about the Hip-T. I love the idea and want one now!
that hip-t is such a good idea! Sign me up for the contest!
I’m also doing a before and after thing on my blog, but the after’s won’t be posted until the end of the summer :)
You look great! NIce work!
I am new to your blog and am enjoying your posts and recipes too! I have been inspired by your green monster’s and have been making my own. I also tried the 10 minute yogurt with Almond milk and strawberries. It turned out well. It was a little more runny than the Trader Joe’s yogurt, but it tasted delicious! Plus, I put it in a green monster with tons of spinach, half a frozen banana, and some frozen mango cubes also from TJ’s. Yummy!
Angela, you look amazing! Great job on the BBBC Challenge! Are you planning on doing a summer BBBC edition? That Hip-T is super cute, would be so happy if I won one! I also have a longer torso; it’s funny but I never connected the two together as to why my shirts were always too short. I had previously been blaming it on the manufacturers. haha.
Don’t you love spray tans!!? Planks are so amazing.Great job!
What a fun concept! I love the Madrid print Hip T. :-) And congrats on the BBBC success!
You look so good.
Love the Hip-T. :)
You looked amazing before, but you look even more amazing now!! That is so awesome! So happy for you! very very inspiring:)
Ditto the above post – you look even more incredible now! And I applaud your courage for putting those up for everyone to see. Thanks for being such a constant source of inspiration!
P.S. Now I really want one of those Hip-Ts…I have a super long torso too, so I know what you’re talking about!
you look great!! i really hope you do another challenge because i really want to tone up for summer. oops, its kind of already here isnt it??

I need one of these so badly. I have a very long torso and my shirts always ride up. Not pretty.
Wow, your stomach is impressive!
You look awesome! Those hip-T’s are a great idea :D

Just found your blog; love it and I love the Hip Ts–I have a long torso and it’s so hard for me to find shirts that are long enough, so I might be ordering some of these….awesome!
you look awesome!
and the hip tees look sweet … i have a long torso too, my sis and i are the same height but her legs are 4 inches longer!
If I don’t win one I am going to have to purchase a Hip-T soon. They are less expensive than I thought they would be, awesome idea too!
I hope you do a summer BBBC, your results are nothing short of FANTASTIC!

Congrats on your fantastic results!
The Hip-Ts are so cute, I hope I win one :)
